Accompanied by Jaguar Heritage Trust production record trace certificate

This 1963 example of Jaguar’s automotive masterpiece is being offered for the first time in over five decades. Said to have been the recipient of a full restoration in the late 1990s, it is presented in its factory-correct shade of Carmen Red over black leather upholstery with a black fabric soft-top.

Correct high-back bucket seats are trimmed in black leather from the G.W. Bartlett Company and stitched to exacting original standards with the same materials as used in 1963. A certificate of authenticity from G.W. Bartlett accompanies the sale. The machined aluminum dash holds a wonderful shine and houses the desirable Series 1 toggle switches and Motorola push-button radio, while the three-spoke wood steering wheel completes the well-appointed interior. Jaguar’s brilliant 72-spoke chromed wire wheels are wrapped in wide whitewall tires, just like the 1961 Geneva show car.

The care and attention lavished on this beloved and desirable Series 1 E-Type—replete with Jaguar Heritage Trust production record trace certificate—are clearly evident, and it will surely impress generations to come, just as it has over the previous five decades.
